Speaking in a pre-match press conference ahead of Madrid's clash against Ajax at the Santiago Bernabeu on Wednesday, the Argentina international forward stated, "Our objective is to guide Real Madrid where it belongs, where it deserves to be.

"We really want to make a good run in Europe. We want to reach the final at Wembley and to win the trophy, although we know that it will be tough."

The 22-year-old added, "The important thing is that the team keeps on improving. Last Saturday we played with three strikers and we felt comfortable."
